INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup raw Broccoli
1/4 cup shredded Low-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Lightly season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. In a non-stick skillet, warm the olive oil over medium heat and sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly golden. Remove and slice into bite-sized pieces.
Steam or blanch the broccoli florets until just tender, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and return to the pot.
Mix the sliced chicken and steamed broccoli into the pasta. Season with a bit more salt and pepper if desired.
Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish and sprinkle the low-fat cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your wholesome, cheesy chicken and broccoli pasta bake!
